1889 Map of Wilmington

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The Deerfield River carves a deep path through the southern Green Mountains in this late 19th-century reconnaissance survey, capturing a landscape defined by timber, early industrial water power, and the narrow-gauge Hoosac Tunnel and Wilmington R. R. tracking the riverbank. This edition is particularly notable for its composite history: while the topographic data reflects the 1889 survey by G.E. Hyde, the 1942 reprint includes Whitingham Lake, providing a rare hybrid view of the valley as it transitioned from a network of river-bottom settlements like Davis Bridge to a landscape of hydro-electric reservoirs.
